What are the powertrain options for the All-New Wrangler?

This new model comes with not one standard engine, but a possible three different engine options! The diesel engine will be available in 2019, but with a 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 that can create 442 lb-ft of torque and 260 horsepower, it’s most definitely worth talking about. Paired with this engine is an eight-speed automatic transmission and Engine Stop-Start. The all-new engine is the turbocharged 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder that comes with eTorque technology that helps to improve launch performance, driver comfort, and the fuel economy. This powertrain generates 270 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. Paired with this engine is also the eight-speed automatic transmission. The impressive engine that is being carried over from previous model years is the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 that can deliver 260 pound-feet of torque and 285 horsepower. Engine Stop-Start is standard, as is a six-speed manual transmission, with the optional eight-speed automatic transmission available.

What technology is available with the All-New Wrangler?

Technology is vital when it comes to modern vehicles, and the 2018 Wrangler is bringing with it not just off-roading capabilities, but entertainment features.

These systems are easy-to-use, give you faster startup times, have high-resolution graphics, and enhanced processing power. When you have either the Uconnect 7.0 or 8.4NAV you will also receive Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so now you’ll be able to use your phones seamlessly. Apple CarPlay allows for your iPhone to plug into your Wrangler so you can access music, send messages, use the navigation system, and even make phone calls. Android Auto does the same for any Android phones, including live traffic information, access to 30 million songs with Google Play Music, and even the ability to ask Google. Other technology features include SiriusXM Radio, Traffic and Guardian Connected Services, and Travel Link.
